Starting from, if you can believe it 24mg/day!
Very quick (3 weeks) to 4mg, commencing around Jun 1
Started diary on liquid taper because I was losing track. Got 3oz/60ml bottle from Pharmacy (free @Walgreens) and 10 ml measured liquid oral syringe off shelf, used for infant dispensing. It has a unique top insertion device for precise measurement. Its graduated at 5 levels or.16mg for each line of liquid measurement.The rest was like labwork! 1/8mg tab crushed to 10ml H20….you’ve all probably read the rest somewhere else here so no use in being redundant.
Dropped .16 every 2-3 days starting June 15 when tapered down to 2.88mg. The syringe no longer micromeasures @.8mg, so today I diluted that amount w/9ml =.8mg. So, each drop of 1 ml=.08mg. Plan to keep to the 2-3 day drop to 1 ml or .08mg which is 1% of an 8mg tab.
Virtually no or very minimal w/d. When get w/d symtoms, last 10 minutes and slight to moderate.
I’m very thankful to this forum for helping me quit suboxone. My hair is perceptibly thinner, and I hope it returns when I jump. Then its to the benzos on the Ashton plan (its avaialble with charts over 1-2 year using diazpem.)
Most significant impetus for quitting was leaving dysfunctional relationship…if you’re in one of those, its just a story of relapse. At least for me!!! Good luck to all!
Would like to hear ideas and natural supplements for PAWS, and how long it lasted for you
